Moving Carts

A limited amount of moving carts will be available for residents to borrow for one hour while moving in. It is suggested that you bring a hand truck or similar item to assist you in moving your belongings.

New Resident Access and Guest Access

If you are a new resident and do not yet have a PennCard, your room assignment and occupancy can be verified at the Information Center of your building. The Information Center staff will verify your access until you obtain a PennCard. PennCards can be obtained at the PennCard in the Franklin Building at 3451 Walnut St. Their hours are 9 am - 5:00 pm, Monday - Friday.

Anyone who is not a resident of the building, or does not have a valid PennCard at the portal is considered a guest. Residents will be able to sign in guests at the Information Center, following established guest access procedures.

Guests must have a valid form of photo ID to be signed in and accompanied by a building resident host at all times. Guests should expect to present their ID for sign in and for physical verification upon each entry.

 

Residents are responsible for their guests at all times!
